FBI Virus is a dangerous virus that is fast spreading infecting thousands of computers, sending thousands of users into a tizzy. Unlike conventional virus attacks, the FBI Virus sends scary messages with full screen warnings purpotedly from FBI. The pop-up warning contains message stating that the Computer is locked by FBI for fraudlent use of copyrighted material and visiting banned sites. The very sight of FBI warning is enough to send shivers down the spine of all computer users. But FBI recent statement about the scam gave many users the much needed respite.
Generally the virus gets activated when the user downloads an infected file or a malcious attachment. The virus dubbed as " drive-by" virus will install itself when users visit infected websites. And once the virus gets installed, the virus locks the computer, making it difficult for the users to gain access the computer. To unlock the computers, the virus instructs the users to pay a fine through a payment system. But we recommend you never fall prey to such scams.
